Decision day

We had planned an open air service in the Churchyard for this morning but the weather had other ideas.

So we were inside for the main part of our service, with a large congregation overflowing into the galleries, but after the baptism of the three childrem Albert, Greysen, and Sophia at the font, we all went outside for the baptism of Temitope in the pool, before returning inside the church for the rest of this very special service.

Following on from Pentecost last week, Jacob preached on Peter's sermon from Acts 2 which ends with this challenge so appropriate for today: 'Each of you  must turn away from your sins and be baptised in the name of Jesus Christ, so that your sins may be forgiven and you may receive God's gift, the Holy Spirit. For God's promise was made to you and your children and to all who are far away - all whom the Lord our God calls to himself.'
